The ScaryMommy.com blogger presents a new essay collection that denounces the illusory nature of parenting advice, arguing against such common fallacies as "You'll be back to your old self in no time" and "It gets easier."

Newly pregnant and scared out of her mind, Smokler lay on her gynecologist's examination table and was told the biggest lie she'd ever heard in her life: "Motherhood is the most natural thing in the world." She began to question exactly what DNA strand she was missing that made the whole motherhood experience feel less than natural to her. Now Smokler humorously debunks more than twenty pervasive myths about motherhood.
